Why is Physical Security Such a Huge Threat?

In 2018, credit and debit card fraud resulted in $28 billion in losses. Laptop theft costs businesses more than eight times the cost of issuing a new laptop, and 25% of stolen laptops are stolen right out of an office or car. One of the newest threats is “juice jacking”, in which people use public charging stations and USB plugins to charge their mobile devices. Watch for pop ups that indicate you might be doing more than just charging your device, and use a USB condom when you aren't sure.
